Meet the Egyptians

These thread is dedicated to the upcoming Egyptian tribe that will be
available during our annual special. This concept art shows some typical
melee weapons used by the Egyptian infantry. The khopesh (picture 3) is
one of the most famous weapons.

The strong economy and efficient organization of the Egyptians cause
relatively cheap unit production, when it comes to some basic units. On
the opposite, some other troops can burn a hole in your wallet, but they
can definitely become the force to be reckoned with. After all, with all
those resources, that Egyptians can produce really fast, the price
probably won’t matter that much! Look on this overview of the Egyptian
army and find out which unit you would prefer:

In this year’s annual special Travian: Fire and Sand, each tribe’s hero has a unique ability.
The Egyptians are master builders and architects. Therefore, they need resources - which is why the Egyptian hero produces
twice as many resources.

The Egyptians, being the great builders that they are, focus on an economic approach to many things. Their special building is called Waterworks. It will increase the bonus of the oases, that are connected to the village, in which the Waterworks are built.
If you are considering to make use of this advantage, keep in mind, that you first need to build your Hero‘s mansion up to level 10 and you need to have at least one oasis connected to the village. On level 1, the Waterworks will cost you 650 Lumber, 670 Clay, 650 Iron and 240 Crops but those costs will grow pretty steadily.
